    The food and wine is totally overpriced and one meal arrived like warm the other totally overcooked.

    We had a wonderful evening this time. We were very friendly received and service was adequate and prompt. The food was excellent. Good starters of carpaccio and prawns in a wonderful sauce. The mains were just as good. Tender beef with tasty vegetables. Too bad it was rather quiet, for the ambiance is beautiful but the room is pretty big so it seems a bit empty when not filled with guest. But there can always be a next time
